Consider the following pairs of aperture shape and the dimension it sorts on:

Round perforation - Width

Slotted perforation - Thickness

Square mesh - Width

Slotted perforation - Length

How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?

  • A.All four
  • B.Only three
  • C.Only one
  • D.Only two

Answer: B

Correct answer: Only three

Three pairs are right. Round perforations sort on width, since a particle cannot turn to advantage in a round hole and its width governs. Slotted perforations sort on thickness, since a particle can present itself edge-on. Square mesh, like round holes, sorts effectively on width.

The fourth is wrong. Slots do not sort on length - a long thin particle passes a slot as readily as a short one of the same thickness. Length separation requires an indented cylinder or a disc separator.
